Hi everyone just wanted to know how to stop all chars typing at the same time,
i am dual boxing and when im in a group i want one to talk and not both, any help would be grateful

Simple answer would be to remove the ENTER key from your key broadcasting config so that you don't enter/exit chat on your non-main windows.

Complex answer would be to create a new config that doesn't broadcast anything and switch to it when you want to use chat.

I suggest this one so if you hit numbers or wasd and still have them set to movements and the various menu buttons, you dont go opening random menus and having seizures...

tnx for the reply's but how would i go about creating a new config i am new to dual boxing and still getting to grips with things.

Use the Configure Keys feature (it's the button on the left side of the Pwnboxer main window). Here's a screenshot.

Pick one of those tabs and customize it.

Ooo, just thought of another workaround. You could use the Key Remapping feature and just remap ENTER to <nothing> on all your slave windows. But just removing ENTER from your broadcast list of keys would be simpler.

dont hold me to it, but i believe its bartender to make extra action bars

Paul "giantsig" 1337noob is correct. They are some small bars made with bartender4.

Bobby79 · 03-25-2010, 05:21 PM

bartender 4 do the bars bind to the party members as in the video he presses the shield and it automatically shields the adjacent party member without auto targeting him first

TheMuffinMan · 03-25-2010, 06:49 PM

No the buttons arent the actual spells from the spellbook. They are macros.

type /macro in game to bring up the macro UI.

A simple one would be like...

/target Mage1
/cast Power Word: Shield

or

/cast [target=Mage1] Power Word: Shield
